Danielle,
Donald Trump has been president for 3 years, and there are a lot of people out there who are afraid.
They're afraid for the children who have to go through lockdown drills at school. They're afraid for families separated at the border. They're afraid for women, for people of color, for the LGBTQ+ community, and for anyone who is marginalized under this administration.
It's easy to give into our fear and pull back, but the truth is — fighting back is an act of patriotism.
We built this nation by fighting back against a king. We saved this nation by fighting the scourge of slavery. We rebuilt this nation's economy by fighting back against the Great Depression with the New Deal. We protected this nation by fighting back against fascism once, and we can do it again.
This is when Americans are at their best — by taking on the big battles to fight for their country and their neighbors.
This is not a time for small ideas. This is a time to fight, and that's exactly what I'll do.
I'm in this fight because I believe that we can build an America where everyone has value. We can build an America where we put people, not corporations, first. We can build an America that invests in every child, no matter where they come from or where they live.
I believe in what we can do together, Danielle. That's why I'm asking you to fight with me, because we can decide the future of this country — not just for the next four or eight years, but for generations to come.
This is our moment in history. We can choose hope over fear and fight to make our country work for working people, but I can't do it without you.
